Abstract (en)

Turbine with movable tarpaulins changes the movement of gases or fluids in rotation. Turbine has on three or more equally spaced supporting frames installed tarpaulins made of fabric or foil, which can freely move in angle 180° and with that from one side enable the flow of gas or liquid while from the other side create resistance. Turbine would be used primarily for exploitation of wind energy or energy of water and sea streams. With such a turbine we would for the same resistance surface spend less material, than for blades made of solid material. In use of the tarpaulins itself it is not necessary to use the moving parts that need lubrication.
